Travel Brochure
You will be creating a travel brochure for the Orient Express train, following the route you have chosen. This assignment has several stages; complete them thoroughly and in order.
Stage One
Using the map found here, select a route from London to EITHER Athens or Istanbul
Using appropriate search terms, locate photographs of attractions in each city
Select one or two photographs for each city
Drill down to get the highest resolution possible and then save a copy of the photo in your "Orient" folder
Record the URL of the photograph in an ongoing document titled YLN_orient saved in your "Orient" folder
Stage Two
Use GiMP to create a photomontage (or composite) for the brochure that combines the original photo with a photo of you
You will need to create layers and learn how to merge two pictures
Save each file as a .xcf as well as as a .jpg (the .xcf will save your layers for further editing, but you will need the .jpg to import into your brochure)
Each composite should give a professional view of you on the tour provided via the Orient Express
N.B. You do not have to use every picture you found; you must have at least one picture for each city on your route but you may find that some pictures you saved do not work well as composites.
Stage Tnree
For each city/picture, write a brief (2-5 sentence) paragraph that proclaims the glories of the city, trying to persuade the reader to visit the city via the Orient Express
This should be written in your YLN_orient file from Stage One
Proofread carefully for spelling and grammar errors.
Stage Four
Use a piece of card stock to create a tri-fold or quad-fold dummy brochure
